The Xiaomi Poco F9 Ultra is shaping up as a high-end smartphone with a large battery, a 200MP main camera and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. The phone has not been officially announced yet, and the specifications currently circulating are based on preliminary information and leaks.
According to the specifications provided by GSMArena, the Poco F9 Ultra could feature a 6.9-inch AMOLED display with a 185Hz refresh rate, a 1200 x 2608-pixel resolution and support for Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and HDR Vivid. The display is also listed with a peak brightness of up to 4,500 nits and Gorilla Glass 7i protection.
At the centre of the device could be Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, built on a 3nm process. The preliminary listing mentions up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage, with no microSD card slot.
Photography could be another major highlight of the Xiaomi Poco F9 Ultra. The reported triple-camera setup includes a 200MP primary camera with optical image stabilisation, a 50MP periscope telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom and a 50MP ultrawide camera. The phone is also tipped to support 8K video recording at 30fps.
The reported battery capacity stands at 8,050mAh, paired with 100W wired charging. The preliminary specifications also mention 50W wireless charging, along with reverse wired and wireless charging support.
For connectivity, the phone is listed with 5G, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC, an infrared port and NavIC support. It could also feature an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor and IP68/IP69 protection against dust and water.
GSMArena currently lists the Xiaomi Poco F9 Ultra as “not announced yet” and “rumored”, meaning the specifications and availability should not be treated as final. Recent reports have also indicated that the Poco F9 Ultra has appeared in certification databases, suggesting that a global launch may be in preparation.
The preliminary European pricing has been reported at around €999, although Xiaomi has not officially confirmed the price, launch date or final specifications. Until the company makes an announcement, the reported hardware should be considered unconfirmed.
